Nope. My real last name isn't Scrod. That's a nickname I've had since I was a little kid that has pretty much become my official surname over the past 30 years. It's an old New England fisherman's term meaning "catch of the day".

Unfortunately, everyone outside of New England assumes it has something to do with balls.

Pretty much the same thing. It was a general name for whatever whitefish the fishermen happened to haul in the most of that day. Local restaurants began advertising Scrod (or 'Schrod' in some parts) on their menus because they never really knew what they'd get.

I once had a shirt from some seafood place in Gloucester that said I HAD SCROD LAST NIGHT in big yellow letters on the front. I wish I still had that damn shirt!

Riot - you asked in the other thread but I figured I'd repost my response here in case anyone else was wondering:

Most likely, yes. I'm expecting the 'Massive' shirts any day now and hopefully the hats will be in my hands soon as well because my e-mail has been blowing up over them. I think I may have gotten anxious and put that one up a little too soon!
